Technical analysis from Bitcoinbullbear predicts gold,silver,palladium as down for 2013.

I would expect a vested interest there.
However I do value the forecasts that have been made there. They have been the best source for Bitcoin forecasts so far.

Given this view, it would seem like a good idea to move savings from precious metals into Bitcoin. But I'm still not that bullish. I prefer to use Bitcoin as a utility with a small amount saved by just in case, and instead have savings in precious metals. But what can one invest in if those main markets are all predicted as down?

I don't want to make a lot of money this way - I just want to avoid taking more than minor losses.

I have some alternative ideas for investment but they seem so much more risky than holding gold (for example).

What to do...?
At this point I would say if you own property, invest in things like solar panels, methane generation, micro farming. But I'm mobile...
 Perhaps there's a way to invest in online assets that isn't centralized?

I'd love to see a P2P Stock Exchange set up, especially if it involves Bitcoin but no one seems to be actively developing it yet but the idea does seem to be floating around.

a p2p stock market have a chicken egg problem and so far the use it can have is money laundering

Los desesperados publican que lo inventó el rey que rabió, porque todo son en el rabias y mas rabias, disgustos y mas disgustos, pezares y mas pezares; si el que compra algunas partidas vé que baxan, rabia de haver comprado; si suben, rabia de que no compró mas; si compra, suben, vende, gana y buelan aun á mas alto precio del que ha vendido; rabia de que vendió por menor precio: si no compra ni vende y ván subiendo, rabia de que haviendo tenido impulsos de comprar, no llegó á lograr los impulsos; si van baxando, rabia de que, haviendo tenido amagos de vender, no se resolvió á gozar los amagos; si le dan algun consejo y acierta, rabia de que no se lo dieron antes; si yerra, rabia de que se lo dieron; con que todo son inquietudes, todo arrepentimientos, tododelirios, luchando siempre lo insufrible con lo feliz, lo indomito con lo tranquilo y lo rabioso con lo deleytable.

Yeah, criminal activities seems to be the only real argument against Bitcoin stuff in general really but that's the price you pay for a mostly anonymous free market and that's a very small problem compared to what a lot of other conventional markets have to deal with.
